| Pilocarpus Jaborandi | eye drops mimic Ach, parasymmp tx: glaucoma traditionally: tx power salvation + sweating activity |
| Amazon Healing Process | Diagnosis Location Collection Preparation Conjuration |
| Conjuration | Labiatae: cleanse + remove "bad air" Sentilla: bathe pt bring pt back to balance with community w a dance |
| Kodurio | tree bark, liquid tx: skin + ear infection + sunburn ellagic acid derivative like taspine |
| Rubicaceace fam | common wound healing indoid glucosides (sugar units) root bark used more |
| Labiatae | remove negative energies during conjuration cleanse + remove "bad air" |
| Sentilla | attract positive energies in conjuration used to bathe pt |
| Bathysa cuspidata | Rubicaecae fam paeonol: active constituent for womb healing (phenolic compound) |
| Nettle | Urera sp aka Ortiga use for hair + pain tx: bruises + diuretic active constituent: histamine |
| Barbasco | poisonous chemical compound roots used for fishing as insecticide constituent: rotenone |
| Incense | saebador in mambeadero - purify maloca collected from tree bark - resin |
| frankincense | boswella acid anti-microbial |
| Renin | Injury creates resin seals and hardens - prevent tree infection (defence) lipid soluble anti-fungal activity - iguana triterpene (similar to fusidic acid) freeze, open, collet larvae b4 transport |
| Flower Remedies | spring water + sunlight = make fluids tx: emotional stress Bach Rescue Remedy |
| Aromatherapy | topical: dilute w veg oil internal: medical supervision externally: hot water + towel, or on pillow citrus als: increase sensitivity to sunlight seizures in epileptics (sage, rosemary, fennel, hyssop) |
| Gattefossé | aromatherapy tx: burns + infected wounds |
| Traditional Chinese Medicine - practices | CHM acupuncture acupressure meditation Tai Chi |
| Yin | cold, dark |
| Yang | heat, light |
| Yinyang | balence |
| Qi | Energy |
| Indian Ayuvedic Medicine | nutrition yoga mediation oil massage herbal teas for physical/emotional harmony |
| vata/pitta/kapha | lean/muscular/stocky |
| Ayuvedic | veda: self-knowledge Ayu: of life |
| Traditional Herbal Regulatory Scheme | HM accessed info ab safe use efficacy based on traditional use evidence of efficacy? = full product lisence |
| MHRA | Regulatory Agency for Herbal Medicines |
| maceration | soften using fluid |
| infusion | pour hot water on top |
| decoction | boil herbal material |
| percolation | filtering |
| Aristolochia | prohibited HM! kidney failure + cancer |
| Kava Kava | restricted HM! external use only |
| Senecio | Prohibited HM! |
| Ginseng | Prohibited HM! Foetal skeletal malformation |
| Anecdotal evidence | not scientific |
| preliminary | too little research for definite conclusion |
| inconclusive | inconsistent/contraindicative |
| conclusive | consistant in large group meta analysis (only a few HPs) |
| Ginkgo biloba | claim: increase cerebral + peripheral blood PRELIM: prevent/reduce memory deterioration GI problems, allergic skin rxn w aspirin = risk of excessive bleeding |
| Echinacea Purpurea | SCI EVI: IS, anti-viral/inflam/microbial, wound healing PRELIM: improve symptoms shorten duration INCONC: reduce frequency of other infections |
| Hypericum Perforatium (St. Johns Wort) | dried flowering plants - "natural Prozac" SCI: anti-dep/viral/bacterial PRELIM: reduce SE, increase efficacy mod/mild depression compared to Prozac induce metabolic enzymes = reduce therapeutic effect reinforce Prozac (lethargy, anxiety, nausea) |
| Hit identification | NP screened for activity against selective target "Hits" = bioactive compounds |
| High throughput screening (HTS_ | assays automated robotics biochem target - screen - identify hits - inspiration for leads |
| semi-synthesis | extract intermediate precursor, convert to final product bc isolating NPs can be costly, sustainable and ecological challenge intermediate could be easier to extract |
| total synthesis | synthesize given NP |
| "Hit-to-Lead" optimization | hits with desired effect are modified to optimize potency + reduce toxicity |
| pharmodynamics | drug does to body |
| pharmokinetics | body does to drug |
| Natural Product Discovery | extraction - organic solvents exploit solubilities in NPs complex matrices, TLC Separation - automated, precipitation, crystallization, chromatography Structure ID - optimization - production |
